Assessment 1 The Torus

The Torus:

Key process:
1.Get an aluminium plate
2.Make mark vertical to the wide of the plate
3.Place it on the stump or english wheel to make main body shape change
4.Use the squeezing machine or smash the edge of length side to make it curve convert to the main body
5.Try to make the surface clean and smooth

Just head to some difficult points, at this project, adjust the main body to curve is simple but when shaping the edge of the length, it is so easy to affect the remain shape of the main body. Therefore, compare with using mallet and fix cyclinder mould to make the curve, it is suggest to apply squeezing device to deal with the edge of length, though it might increase the difficulty on smooth work because it left lot of nob mark on the material. For the smooth work, using english wheel to roll the main body might be a good idea, but for the side curve, it is still better to use the cyclinder mould to sharp it.
